    I have already searched CPAN before posting this question. But I just want the recommended and the best modules for my purpose.

    1. Didn't find any module for this. Is there any?
    2. Using Config::General; Is there any better/similar one?
    3. better/similar than Nmap::Scanner?
    4. Didn't find any module for this. Is there any?
    5. Is there any single module for getting most of the info.
    6. Good to go with Net::SNMP

    Thanks,
    Ashok

      If you already researched modules, why did you not tell us the results you got in your first post? When you tell us about the results and your conclusions, that helps us gauge what your needs are.

      Have you looked at the results of Log for logfiles?

      Serious operating systems provide information via CIM / WMI and/or SNMP, so I'd look for that on CPAN.

      Well, as usual, please define "best". What is "good" for your purpose? Lines of code? Maintainability? External dependencies? Documentation? Warm fuzzy feeling?

        By the term best I mean for example I use Net::SSH::Expect instead of Net::SSH for obvious reasons...

        Hence, the module should be expandable like getting remote server information, logging facility and ofcourse a good documentation.

        Thanks,
